Probate

Probate is the process used to transfer the ownership of an individual’s assets after he or she dies. This court-supervised process will validate the will of the decendent (if one exists), formally administrate any contested issues surrounding the will, and determine any taxes and debts owed to creditors by the estate.

We are a full-service probate firm, able to assist you with complex asset valuation issues, estate tax issues and real estate transactions.

We will guide you through the probate process to help you:

• Determine which assets are subject to probate, and which are exempt
• Identify, collect, and manage assets during the probate process
• Handle payment of debts, claims, and taxes on the estate
• We are also available to serve as an expert witness in probate and estate matters
